Jaxson's Haircut!

My smallest one got his hair trimmed today! Previously we had buzzed it whenever it needed cut but as I let it grow out a bit...I noticed it start to curl! It is just too cute and along with proddings from family and friends...we let it continue to grow *much to Chris's disliking*! ;)

But then it did hit a point where it *was* just a bit too long...so we went and had it trimmed at my aunt's salon today! :) Doesn't he look so handsome? I didn't post any before pics...but if you look back in my posts...you can see some of his crazy *cute* hair!

**Also...I have to mention the fact that today....we got snow. Yes...snow here in western PA in the middle of October! I, myself, like colder weather...but snow...? Already?? I am truly hoping it doesn't stay too long. I want it to wait till December! ;)**Before I go...I just wanted to say that I started reading Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, yesterday. I am liking it so far...although I am only about 50 pages in. I sometimes have to reread what he writes...just so I can fully grasp it. But once I understand what he is saying...it makes for easier reading as I go. Have you ever read this book? If so, I would love to hear your thoughts on it! :)

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend! For those of you, like us, who have snow...stay warm!!!

Katy~ That haircut is just too cute, I mean handsome :) Snow, I would like some snow...we never get snow..well I do remember on Valentines day back in like 1975 I think we got like a quarter inch. In your previous post you showed a book that you are journaling in, do you mind me asking where you got it??? I am just nosey!!!Have a great weekendBlessings,Joann

Hello Katy,So nice to meet you, I have just spent a few minutes enjoying your beautiful blog, and was so blessed by reading of your family life. I felt such peace and contentment here.What a blessing to find women who love God and want to serve Him by serving their family and others.

Great haircut for your son, he is adorable, as far as the snowfall, I bet it was beautiful. We don't get much snow where we live but I think the first is always the prettiest.

I really enjoyed your story of finding the mouse in the chicken feed, that happened to me once but he jumped on me and really scared me, I almost fainted.Needless to say he was not as lucky as your little friend. LOLYour Ruthie is precious, and such loyalty! Thank you for sharing, as you can see I so enjoyed my visit.

Thank you for visiting me and for leaving such a sweet comment.Blessings,Sue
